While Marc and Heidi D’Amelio led a quiet life in Connecticut, their lives were changed overnight when their daughters Dixie and Charli started to become famous on social media, and especially on TikTok. Results ? They moved to Los Angeles for the careers of the two influencers. Today, Charli and Dixie D’Amelio rather lead the dream life between rhinestones and sequins, but fame is not always easy to manage for them, especially since they have been fighting for several years to preserve their sanity.
“We want to show how we manage to get by“
The haters make life hard for them as they explain in The D’Amelio Show, their own reality TV show, available on Disney +. They were important for Dixie and Charli to talk about mental health there even if today, they experience criticism differently: “I don’t know what happened. I had like a click one night and suddenly, the criticisms do not reach me any more today. It’s very important to talk about mental health, but on our show, we want to show how we manage to cope and thrive.“, confided Charli D’Amelio during the press conference of The D’Amelio Show.
Same speech from his big sister’s side: “I knew that by talking about it, I was going to end up feeling better that I was finally going to be able to fight it all. So I didn’t see any problem showing my daily life and talking about my mental health. People go through this every day and if I can help someone by showing my daily life why shouldn’t I? I wanted to show it all because it’s not a bad thing. Obviously it’s scary, but it shouldn’t be that bad to feel bad.“
